Genshin Impact: Liyue's Strongest Thousand Rock Army

Chapter 272: Different Ceremony of Inviting Immortals

The Qun Yu Pavilion is decorated in a grand style, with arrangements that pay attention to etiquette and reflect the meaning of wealth. It has a magnificent and noble atmosphere, yet is elegant and polite.

As the host of this place, Su Ping Ningguang, after meeting Nan Zhangsheng and his party, introduced themselves to each other and exchanged pleasantries.

Su Ping looked at the yellow-haired girl, feeling a little confused, but he did not show it. He smiled and said, "We are here to watch the Immortal Ceremony as guests. You two are friends of Rosaria. If you need anything in Liyue Harbor, please feel free to ask."

"Thank you, I appreciate your kindness." Ying knew that it was probably just a polite remark, so she didn't take it seriously to avoid embarrassment.

Ningguang also spoke in a gentle voice, "Leader Qin from Mondstadt is my pen pal, and he hasn't written to me recently. I guess he's too busy to take a break."

Paimon replied, "Yes, when we were leaving, Captain Qin was still arranging many things, saying that it was to eliminate the post-war effects."

Ningguang smiled faintly, her beauty outshining all the other flowers. "She is a rigorous yet delicate woman. With her around, I think the crisis will be resolved in a few days."

After these words were spoken, Ying and Paimeng looked at each other, as if they had suddenly found the organization. Su Ping and Nan Zhangsheng did not react much, as they were reading a letter written by Rosalia, which the traveler had just brought with his help.

"Does Miss Ningguang think so too?" Paimon laughed and asked curiously, "Have you seen this before?"

Ningguang shook her head slightly and said, "I haven't had the honor of seeing her, but judging by her precise choice of words and the fact that the edges of each envelope were folded meticulously, I think what I said should be correct."

Ying smiled and said, "Captain Qin is a very reliable fighting partner. He has helped me and Paimon a lot during our life in Mondstadt."

The conversation here was uninterrupted, while Su Ping and Nan Zhangsheng had already finished reading the letter and were silent, with their eyes shining brightly.

It was clearly written on the envelope: Rosalia's greetings, followed by a request for her teacher to help look after the traveler, followed by a description of many recent events.

Judging from all this, Rosalia is a talkative person, at least in her correspondence with Su Ping, and she is also very kind-hearted and very close to her friends.

Su Ping hesitated for a moment, moved closer to Ningguang, and then said calmly: "You two just arrived at Liyue Port today. I wonder if you have found the inn to stay in?"

"Not yet." Paimon was very honest and brought out the tray directly.

Of course, this doesn't seem to be a bad thing. Although they have just met and are not familiar with each other, at least they have the connection of friends, so they don't have to be on high alert.

That was why Ying did not stop him. Although she was not extremely smart and did not have the idea of ​​hiding wherever she went, she still had to be vigilant.

"In that case, if you two find it convenient, it is not a bad idea to stay in the Jade Pavilion temporarily." Ningguang spoke leisurely with a charming smile.

Paimeng and Ying were silent, a little dumbfounded.

Such a wealthy place, and they were invited to stay on the first day they met. Could it be... some kind of conspiracy or trick?

Of course, this is just a guess in Ying's heart. Paimon would never have such an idea. He is still thinking about how wonderful life will be living here in the future.

At the critical moment, Su Ping raised the letter in his hand to dispel her doubts and explained: "Rosalia wrote in the letter, asking me to take good care of everything for you two in Liyue. I hope you two will not refuse, so that I can fulfill my credit as a teacher."

"Okay, okay!" Paimon's big eyes were as bright as two stars, and he was very happy.

On her crystal clear and white face, she showed a very friendly smile and said, "Thank you, Mr. Su Ping."

At this time, Ningguang also called a secretary from Qun Yu Pavilion, Bai Wen who was also helping at the beginning, and asked her to take the guests to the guest rooms and introduce various matters.

Su Ping saw Nan Zhangsheng off and talked with him for a while on the deck of Qun Yu Jing.

"Approximately how long will it take?"

"When the Immortal Ceremony is held tomorrow, the Emperor will pretend to be dead and fall down, then transform into a human to prepare for the Immortal Ceremony. After that, the Immortals will come to perform a scene of questioning the crime, that is, fighting the demon god. This time I will intercept it in advance, and the Fatui will probably not make much move."

"You've said this more than once. I'm asking about your situation. How is it going? How long will it take?"

"Almost... After this year, it will be almost done. If we work day and night, we will be in time."

"Okay, I'll try my best."

"It's okay. I'll just live if I can. If not, you can ask Hu Tao to find a Feng Shui treasured place to bury me. This way, my mother won't be delayed from going on a blind date!"

Whenever Nan Zhangsheng talked about this in front of Su Ping, he was always very nonchalant, as if he was an insignificant existence who could die at any time and no one would care.

But in fact, he is a person who is very afraid of death, but he just doesn't want to show it, so as not to make the people in front of him anxious and affect their original life, which is a result he doesn't want to see.

"Don't say that again." Su Ping sighed and patted his shoulder.

Nan Zhangsheng smiled, as handsome as jade, "I haven't been blessed before, so what am I afraid of?"

After that, there was only silence. Nan Zhangsheng stepped onto the floating stone platform alone and returned to Liyue Harbor on the ground. Su Ping watched him leave and turned away.

Inside the main hall of the Jade Pavilion, Ningguang sat in front of the tea table, gently shaking a cup of tea in her hand. The price of the teacup was about one million Mora and one ounce. The teacup in her hand was one of only two sets in Liyue Harbor, and was extremely expensive.

"Little brother, how are the security arrangements for tomorrow going?" Ningguang raised her head and looked at the young man who was approaching.

Su Ping nodded. "Everything has been arranged. There will be no mistakes. The whole scene is as solid as a rock. But... Sister Ningguang, remember to stand farther away when you summon the immortals tomorrow."

Ningguang closed her eyes and said calmly, "I know."

Su Ping then reminded: "Be careful."

"Kaiyangxing, when have you ever been so indecisive?"

"It's hard for an honest official to judge family affairs, and I can't help but worry."

……

The next day, the sun was shining brightly across the sky, and there was no cloud in the sky.

This day is August 12th, three days away from the Moon-Chu Festival.

The ceremony of inviting the immortals becomes more grand each year, but most of the spectators are businessmen. After all, this one sentence can cost them their lives, so they need to listen early and make decisions early.

In the seats closer to the front where there was less crowding, the yellow-haired girl Ying and her travel companion Paimon were also praying sincerely.

"Sincerely wish, your wish will come true soon." Nan Zhangsheng, who arrived late, said with a smile.

"It's Zhangsheng, come quickly." Paimeng waved her little hand and called the young man in blue over with a smile. After spending a day together yesterday, she thought that this young man was a very good person.

"Hello, Uncle Zhangsheng."

Also present were two little children, Su Lingling and Su Yunqing. Naturally, the brother and sister stopped making a fuss because they knew the situation well.

Nan Zhangsheng nodded at them, then touched the little girl's head, patted the little boy's shoulder, and smiled warmly, "The two little prodigies have become more and more well-behaved."

Su Lingling laughed, "Prodigy, prodigy, of course you can see the current situation clearly. I won't make trouble."

Su Yunqing also nodded in agreement, but did not say anything, for fear that his elder sister would go back on her word and throw him to the ground in public, which would be a great amusement for the whole family.

After saying hello, there was a young figure besides the others. He had black hair and a plain appearance, but a clean face, especially a pair of big eyes, which made him look very honest.

He looked at the white-haired girl among the group, took a deep breath, and called out, still a little weakly, "Sister Lingling."

Su Lingling turned around and saw the black-haired boy. She jumped over and called out, "Xu Xiaodi, you are here too."

At the original place, several people were not affected by this. Except for Su Yunqing who followed closely, the other two floating objects were still talking about the ceremony of inviting the immortals.

In Nan Zhangsheng's introduction, the thousands of years of history of the ceremony of inviting the immortals was fully presented, and the extremely troublesome ceremony of sending the immortals was also told.

Paimeng looked puzzled, "Zhangsheng, it seems that the Immortal Delivery Ceremony is not necessary now?"

"It's not necessary, but I'll say the introduction at the same time, so as to avoid the situation of inviting without seeing someone off, which sounds unpleasant." Nan Zhangsheng explained without changing his expression.

"oh oh……"

The sun is high in the sky and the sky is deep blue.

Tianquan Ningguang, one of the seven stars, glanced at the sky. Her sleeves fluttered, her figure was graceful, her hair was whiter than snow, and her face was extremely beautiful.

"It's time."

Ningguang spoke softly, and the other six Seven Stars each stepped back a few steps, maintaining a solemn expression, and looked up at the place where the golden vortex would appear soon.

As a Tianquan star, Ningguang, who was also in charge of lighting incense to invite the immortals, also took a few steps forward, allowing Su Ping, who was secretly worried, to relax a little.

"Please welcome the Emperor!"

Ningguang spoke again, and then several golden beads appeared around her body. Each of them was worth more than a million Mora. They could usually be used to hit people, but now they were used to activate the incense burner.

boom!

Golden jade was embedded in the grooves around the incense burner, and then burst out like the edges of tens of millions of swords, rushing straight into the sky, as powerful as the Bull Fighting.

Immediately afterwards, countless golden lights gathered in the sky above Liyue Harbor, covering a distance of thousands of miles. It was magnificent and vast, fully demonstrating the majesty of the Rock Emperor, which could not be desecrated.

Then, some sharp-eyed people discovered that the center of the golden vortex was turning dark, and then gradually spread out until it "polluted" the entire golden area, and the sky and the earth were pitch black.

Amid the astonishment and doubt in the faces of the crowd, the incarnation of the Emperor, a half-unicorn, half-dragon body, fell from the vortex and landed directly on the altar, stirring up clouds of dust.

As if they had anticipated this, the seven stars who retreated a few steps all escaped the disaster. Apart from some dust on their bodies, they were not seriously injured.

Ningguang frowned slightly, and hurried over to check the situation. Then she stood up, waved her hand, and shouted, "The Emperor has been assassinated, block the entire place!"

At the command, the Qianyan soldiers surrounded the area with guns and interrogated everyone one by one. In an instant, everyone was in panic and terrified.

What is it that makes it possible that even the Geo King, the invincible and respected Emperor of Liyue, cannot escape disaster?
